Description

A vignonesi goes “Terracotta”
At Avignonesi, striving for excellence goes hand in hand with experimenting with 100% Tuscan wine-making processes. The intention is to allow the habitat to prevail over foreign influences. For this particular wine, Avignonesi has put aside steel and oak in favour of Tuscan clay.
Chinese for “earth, soil”, the name Da-Di was chosen to underline this particularity.
